February 24, 2021 RE•INVENTED: Stacy Parker, Author
On this Re•Invented segment of The Midlife Podcast, Kimberly's guest is author Stacy Parker. Stacy's book, Grief As A Second Language, is the bible you hope you’ll never need, born out of her own tragic story. Stacy's perspective is worthwhile as so many of us are in a period of grieving. Flat out some have lost loved ones and friends to COVID along with the usual tragedies of illness and accident. But also, we are in a collective period of grieving for life as we used to know it. And while this is a heavy topic, Stacy approaches it with such grace and you can count on Kimberly to inappropriately lighten the mood with some personal stories towards the end.

December 23, 2020 Perfectionism and Entrepreneurship: Kimberly Guests On The Shine Show w/Salome Shillack
This week’s episode is a little different. A few weeks ago I was invited on The Shine Show podcast hosted by Salome Schillack. Salome is the Founder of Shine And Succeed. She and her team help digital course creators launch bigger, grow more consistently and scale faster with Facebook and Instagram Ads. But she didn’t have me on her show to talk about fb ads. We had a super fun chat about perfectionism and entrepreneurship.
